THE MICHIGAN DAILY IDA94-0 U.S., Great Britan et Invitation to Russians z-21'J I I To Res Slim Chance Of Russian Acceptane West Desires Treaty On Nuclear Test Ban WASHINGTON (R)-The United States and Great Britain urged' the, Soviet Union yesterday to re-' turn to the Geneva conference ta-' ble and resume the nuclear test ban talks which ran aground nearly two months ago. There was little, if any, hope that Moscow will accept the invi- tation, That the chances are slim was indicated last week by Valer- ian Zorin, chief Soviet delegate to the United Nations, who said a. test ban treaty must be worked out within the framework of gen- eral disarmament. Talks Recessed The three-year-long tripartite talks were recessed Sept. 9, to give the UN General Assembly a chance to discuss the issue, The United States note said the world organization has completed its debate by adopting a resolu- tion calling for resumption of the talks. Therefore, the note went on, the United States proposes that the discussions should continue starting Nov. 28, or on any other date agreeable to the Soviets. Talks Stall The Geneva talks became stall- ed when the Russians resumed testing in the atmosphere on Sept. -1. Since then Russia has exploded more than 30 nuclear devices in what the State Department called "the single most intensive testing program in history." It included 25 and 55-megaton superbombs-the mightiest ever touched off. Bonn Recalls Ambassador From Moscow BONN WA) -- Veteran German Diplomat Hans Kroll yesterday faced possible removal from his post as ambassador to Moscow in the backlash of his talk with Premier Nikita Khrushchev on the Berlin crisis. Kroll allegedly made at least two proposals that do not repre- sent the West German govern- ment's position. The two proposals correspond with what press reports from Mos- cow said last week were a new So- viet plan for ending tension over Berlin: 1) A four-power agreement on the status of West Berlin and ac- cess to it from West Germany. 2) An arrangement between the Soviet Union and Communist East Germany to guarantee this agree- ment. ume Test Talks Recruiting Problems Hit Peace Corps Plans Again Congolese Appeal to UN To Help Fight Katanga UNITED NATIONS (MP-The Central Congo government yester- day demanded effective aid from the United Nations to put an end to what it called chaos stirred up by Katanga Premier Moise Tshombe. Justin Bomboko, the Congolese foreign minister, denounced Tshombe as a traitor who was responsible for the division of The Congo. Bomboko addressed the 11-nation Security Council as it met for the first time since last February to consider events in The Congo.

GREEN Associated Press staff writer WASHINGTON-President John F. Kennedy has decided to take the giant-stride route to a new American tariff policy, in step with the thriving European Com- mon Market.. The move could plunge him into the roughest legislative fight of his presidency. If his timing is off, AMERICAN TARIFF POLICY: Kennedy Nears Daring Trade Program (yl a, the kind from which lawmakers recoil, one affecting the Jobs of some voters and the earnings of some businessmen and campaign contributors. Kennedy is convinced that the trade agreements act, expiring June 30, must not only be renewed but should be rewritten into a more potent long-term instrument of foreign policy and trade ex- pansion. Negotiating Authority To keep the export lanes open to this country and its good neigh- bors in Latin America and the Far East, Kennedy wants authority to negotiate give-and-take tariff cuts on whole groups of commodities and with entire blocs of countries. The product-by-product, month- by-month, dickering over tariffs and quotas now required by the law has been outmoded, the ad- ministration contends, by the emergence of the common market concept. While removing their internal trade barriers - andsexpanding trade among themselves by 50 per cent in the process-the six com- mon market countries are erecting a uniform tariff wall against ex ports of the United States and other outsiders. Their manufac turers, meanwhile, are giving thi country ever-stiffening competi tion in non-Europeon markets, in. cluding the United States itself. Inrecent weeks Great Britain Ireland and Denmark have ap- plied to join the original six. Nor. way may follow. Thus Western Eu. rope shapes up into a potentia unified market of 250 million peo- ple with United States exporters looking in from outside. "Our allies in Europe are n( longer dealing in item-by-item terms, and we must adapt our ne- gotiating authority accordingly,' said the provocative bipartisan re- port filed Nov. 2 with a House foreign economic affairs subcom- mittee. WASHINGTON - The Peace Corps has recruiting troubles again. This time it is not a shortage of applicants but a shortage of specialists needed for specific proj- ects overseas. To date, the corps, headed by R. Sargent ShriversJr., has re- ceived 14,354 applications. Al- most 8,000 applicants have taken entrance tests. Several thousand more are expected to report for the next nation-wide examina- tions on Nov. 28 and Nov. 29. Minor Dent But the shortage of needed talents has already put a minor dent in Peace Corps planning. For example, lack of farm experts re- cently forced the corps to cancel agricultural parts of two overseas projects. Also .in short supply are con- struction hands, medical techni- cians and heavy-equipment oper- ators. Another planning problem is the tendency of would-be volunteers on college campuses to delay send- ferred to other projects. Peace Corps officials are satisfied so far with this attrition rate. The bulk of applications come from college students or gradu- ates with liberal arts backgrounds. After intensive training, these persons make highly useful vol- unteers, particularly in the teach- ing assignments that now consti- tute the majority of corps proj- ects overseas. Complicating the build-up and the recruiting - selection - training process are requests from foreign governments for certain special- ists in small groups. These spe- cialists are hard to find.

Said Thomas Quimby, Corps recruiting chief: Apply Now Peace "If a person plans to go to work for us in June, he should be applying to us now." Over-all, the corps has largely met the goal set by President John F. Kennedy when he set up the corps last March-500 to 1,000 volunteers overseas or in train- ing by 1962. Seventeen projects in a dozen countries have been scheduled. Seven hundred $75-a-month volunteers are overseas or in train- ing. Some 250 more will start training at colleges in January.

Stikker, NATO secre- tary-general, declared that in case of an all-out nuclear attack against the alliance "the reply should be immediate with all the weapons available." He urged a "hard-boiled" attitude in dealing with the Russians, saying they want no nuclear war now either. Conventional Forces The emphasis on the Allied buildup, however, was on conven- tional forces. President John F. Kennedy sent a message declaring he believed ground forces prob- ably are as important to allied defense now as at any time in NATO history.'
